whats the theroetical max wifi throughput under samba

[pete y testing]

hi guys

have an issue i cant figure out when it comes to simple transfer rates over smb / samba

previous testing suggest that 60Mb/s over 1300M wifi adapter would be the max throughput over smb / samba

yet im getting 110 MB/s with windows 10 with a 30 gig vid file transfer in about 4 minutes and 30 seconds

file was a new non used file for testing

Are you sure you don't have a phantom Gig Ethernet connection?

50-55 (non-sustained) is the max I have hit on my Intel 7260AC adapter, normally it would be more like 40-45 MB/s from testing with NAS transfers. Even with an AC1300 adapter around 60-70 seems more plausible at least from my limited experience, 110MB/s seems a bit high, are you sure your adapter is not another router lol?

I can reach 66-70 MB/s between my Asustor NAS and my Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga 15 (with an Intel 7265AC). Router is an RT-AC88U.

Seems I stand corrected .

cant fig out how to post a pic lol , but im still getting 110 MB/s read and 70 MB/s write with the following hardware

test pc with SSD with asus pce - asus rt-ac88u bonded to a synology 415+

and i have another user with the same hardware reporting the same speeds

read being from NAS to comp SSD

write being from comp SSD to NAS

tested with 4 different 30 gig files that have never been transferred in ether direction before thus eliminating cache being the issue

@pete y testing - what happens if you run iPerf3?

 

[RMerlin]

Considering I get clearly over 60 MB/s with a link rate of 866 Mbps, that at least confirms that you can definitely get well over 60 Mbps with a link rate of 1300 (the expected numbers you wrote in the first post).

what happens if you run iPerf3?

havnt tested with ipref as i do almost all testing over samba , but might give it a go over the weekend and see

iPerf3 is pretty awesome, and there, you'll get as close as you would possibly get for throughput, and you can measure on a periodic basis to look at connection stability...

Provided he can run it on his NAS...

The DS415+ is intel based (Rangley), so there's a good chance he can...
